I had a video of that when I was about 6.

Probably. The storyline (and the strip in general) suggests the author would clear the fairly low nerdery requirement for that.

In comical strip news, the dilberter man has only continued to accelerate his whatever the gently caress after being exiled from this thread.

Fully Unhinged ‘Dilbert’ Guy Tells White People to ‘Get the gently caress Away’ From Black People posted:

“I don’t think it makes any sense as a white citizen of America to try to help Black citizens anymore,” the pro-Trump cartoonist said, adding: “This can’t be fixed.”
Pro-Trump cartoonist Scott Adams pulled the mask all the way off this week, declaring on his podcast that white people should “get the hell away from Black people” while labeling African-Americans as a “hate group.”
Presumably this is part of his master persuasion plan where he cunningly acts like a huge piece of poo poo so people will be fooled into thinking he's a huge piece of poo poo. The rubes.

I've tried and tried, but I only get "Nonsense, this is an election year" vibes from this one. Is there some wordplay I'm missing about the giant and dwarf planets, or is the joke literally "We traded Mars for something else"?

I'm tangentially reminded of that Niven short story in Tales from the Draco Tavern, where Europan native aliens colonized subsurface oceans on Mars, and were waiting patiently for Humanity to get there and make first contact, but Humanity got distracted by the routine visits from the starfaring aliens that most of the Draco Tavern stories feature, and basically stopped space exploration, so they show up at the eponymous Tavern asking to buy the planet.

"Dilbert's Garbageman is the world's smartest human. I like putting incongruous things together. The unanswered question about this character is why he would choose to be a garbageman if he was the smartest man in the world. But if you think about it, we wouldn't be in a position to judge anything done by the world's smartest person. Obviously his decisions would be different from our own--he's smarter! So if we don't understand why he does what he does, the problem is probably on our end."

--Self-described super genius Scott Adams (self-reported IQ of 185) describing his fictional genius in a way that has some nasty implications in hindsight.

It's a lesson as old as recorded time that a depressingly large number of people have always refused to learn: When someone describes another person as a genius, you might want to pay attention to the person they're talking about in case they're right, but when a guy describes himself as a genius, run the gently caress away.

I've been calling that "the Elon Principle" lately, but since everything's about branding these days, I'm nothing if not flexible.

Mara Llave seems good but I forgot it existed so maybe they needed a substantially bigger backlog of strips. :shobon:

All I can focus on now in Mark Trail is how many different ways Jules will gently caress up quickly freehand sketching an item as rigid and predictable as a computer monitor. Invest in a ruler? OK wait I also admire the scripting incompetence of having Mark address Rod by his name in the first panel but also having the narration box tell you his name too.
